Widget Connector does not work with Google Spreadsheets or Draw documents

XMLWordPrintable

      NOTE: This bug report is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding bug report.

      Trying to incorporate a Google spreadsheet or Draw document into Confluence via the Widget connector results in no document being displayed and no error message.

      Workaround:

      • Enable Confluence HTML Macros by going to Confluence Admin > Add-ons > Select All Add-ons > Search for 'HTML', and finally the second HTML module of the Confluence HTML Macro add-on. (Important note: Enabling these macros can make your Confluence site vulnerable to cross-site scripting attacks. Please only enable if you trust your users.)
      • Create a page and add the HTML macro
      • Create an iframe, replacing the URL with the correct document.
      • <iframe src="https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1dxSPZ07MJaD6HqAC8yqB-10xGWfYflnv1xZR3_fc38/edit?usp=sharing" noborder="0" width="95%" height="800" scrolling="yes" seamless></iframe>

            In Google Docs, Sheets, or Slides, click File and select Publish to the web. Click Publish then copy the link. 

            Paste it into the editor and Confluence will autoconvert the link and insert the macro for you.

            when publishing a single tab from a Google sheet, the connector fails and displays only a grey box. Removing the parameters starting with "?gid=NNNNNNNNN" and "single=true" m after /pubhtml enables the display

            Comment [ As per the comments above, this is just a workaround.  I need to be able to access and edit the sheet in confluence, not just see it.  Please add the functionality, or change the description such that is does NOT include sheets. ]

            Not fixed. Still seeing the gray gear icon.
